Don’t miss the chance to join one of Horizon Europe’s largest citizen science projects, “Plastic Pirates – Go Europe!”, as it unveils its key findings on plastic pollution in European rivers and oceans. This unique summit will delve into the broader impact of engaging young Europeans in citizen science, promoting public participation, and supporting the European Research Area under Action 14 of the ERA Policy Agenda 2022-2024.

Engage with young people, teachers, researchers, policymakers, and other key stakeholders to discuss the sources, pathways, and hotspots of plastic pollution, the influence of citizen science on participants’ knowledge and attitudes, and its role in shaping EU policy implementation. Learn from the experience of scaling this project to 13 countries and explore vital lessons for public engagement, policy-making, and the future of citizen science across Europe. Be part of the conversation and contribute to shaping a more sustainable future!
